Maxwell Street Polish and Gyros

Been going here since the 90's before the area got better.  I always loved this place and will always do.  Good place for your late night post drinking fix!

Came here late one night after a movie. My friends kept talking about a Pok Chop Sammich. So that's what I ordered. It was tasty and cooked quickly.
I don't see the big deal about this place, though.

I have a lot of history with Maxwell. When I was little (around 8 or 9 years old), my dad used to take us here after his work. This was the original Maxwell street, where cops would eat at the stand, while a few feet away, someone is selling tube socks and pornos (I saw my first porno box on this street).

Though it's not the same as before, it's still an experience around 2am in the morning on a Friday or Saturday. The people out there are a little sketchy - but they are there for one thing, the hotdogs with sauteed onions or porkchop burgers! They don't care about robbing you. They just want to eat.

You have skaters in line, douchebags, gangsters, nuns, priests, emo kids, all under one line - wanting that Maxwell street hotdog.

So let's talk about the food. Hotdog + sauteed onions + fries + jalapenos + the experience + great price = 5 stars.

Enough said. Go there for an experience and a satisfied stomach.

Only bad thing is, you smell like Maxwell street when you wake up. Worth it though.
